If the objects are all at the same distance from the center
of the Earth, then the gravitational forces between the Earth
and each object only depend on the mass of each object. 
Those forces are least for the 5kg object, and greatest for
the 2,540kg object. 

The gravitational force that attracts each object toward the
center of the Earth is typically referred to as the object's "weight".

It's important to know that there's another force of gravity ... the one
that attracts the Earth toward the object.  And that one is equal to
the object's weight, but pulls in the opposite direction.

Your weight on the Earth is equal to the Earth's weight on you.

maw [93]

The kinetic energy of an object is increased by a factor of 4 . By what factor is the magnitude of its momentum changed: 2.

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>
  • A particle or an item that is in motion has a sort of energy called kinetic energy. An item accumulates kinetic energy when work, which involves the transfer of energy, is done on it by exerting a net force.
  • Kinetic energy comes in five forms: radiant, thermal, acoustic, electrical, and mechanical.
  • The energy of a body in motion, or kinetic energy (KE), is essentially the energy of all moving objects. Along with potential energy, which is the stored energy present in objects at rest, it is one of the two primary types of energy.
  • Explain that a moving object's mass and speed are two factors that impact the amount of kinetic energy it will possess.

The kinetic energy of an object is increased by a factor of 4 . By what factor is the magnitude of its momentum changed: 2.
